Re: not coping

At least at their own house @outlander they can go to bed if they want.

I knew D would miss school but I never thought I would hear S say he misses it too. I think he only misses his friends and luchtime!

I have to admit it has been nice not having to do the school run and having more pj days 😉 The kids have been wearing their school polo top but have been in pj bottoms!! When they go back they have to wear their shirt, tie, blazer. Yeah, more washing and ironing for me!

Re: not coping

You are right about that @outlander the washing never ends with kids!!

I have a sign up in my laundry that says Wash, Dry, Fold, Repeat! Hehe seems like I do this over and over again 😒

Have you got much planned for the weekend hun?

Re: not coping

Aww you're too kind to me lil Sis @outlander. I am also reading your convo with @Snowie. It is sometimes good to just be an observer, not participate
